Could be but usually scripts are about 10-20 plays depending on the coach, series doesn't matter. Your trying to get a read on the defense verse different shifts and alignments so that you can dictate what you want to do afterward. Not saying that was case but its what it looked like to be based on the weird formation.

Only for minorities. How I read it is if for example Glenn gets hired we would get a 3rd pick at the end of each of the next 2 drafts. Let’s say Glenn gets an HC job and Agnew got a GM job we would get 1 3rd pick for the next 3 drafts.

It’s funny most of the “experts” are predicting a one score game with the Lions only scoring around 30. We averaged for the year over 33. I look at the matchup against their defense and don’t see the likelihood of them holding us under our average. I am actually predicting somewhere around a 37-27 type of game. Will be close for a while but eventually we get a couple stops in the second half.

This and honestly for some pass blocking. Limit the blows that Gibbs has to take and he excels at picking up blitzes. they can tell Me all they want that Montgomery is good to go but there is no way that knee is 100% and would not be shocked at all if after the season he has a small procedure to clean it up.

The way Dallas handles everything is Bizarre. Jerry Jones is up there for worst owner in the NFL. Definitely top 2-3.

Every game at this point is a potential loss so ultimately I don’t care which team we play. I also think we are the favorites for any of the games as well. As far as in the NFC and ranking teams that make me the most to least nervous. Eagles Bucs Rams Vikings Commanders Packers

I agree here. I believe we will always see a couple draft picks every year along the 2 lines. Specifically with regards to the interior OLine being always later draft picks. Those players seem to fall in the draft every year with an example of a Mahogany last year where most “experts” had him much higher. the nice thing about the draft is I don’t believe this team has much in the way of weaknesses so its more about finding the right player that provides plus value to this team where they are being picked. This is great imo as I like Holmes ability to move around the draft and identity the players he likes and doesn’t get stuck on positional value. It does however make them a tough team to mock draft for. We could also pick up an extra draft picks over the next couple years if Glenn gets a head job or Agnew a GM job. Those can be big to keeping us competitive as the role players start to get expensive and need to move on. The stars are always going to make their money.

You’ve got some free agents to make decisions on with some major contract extensions looming as well in future years to consider how much you want to spend this year. oline- Zietler could be gone but I’d try and resign him for another 1 year. I do think Mahogany can replace him here but still feel with need another guard. Ragnow is a potential retire as well definitely if we win the Super Bowl so a center could be needed. Then you already mentioned Decker fading so anyway you cut it some young depth is needed along then online. Secondary- Another FA is Davis and I think he’s due for a big pay raise. Do we do that and risk losing one of our drafted guys by not being able to afford an extension? I think they could let him walk or franchise tag him. Melifonwu could be looking for a bigger deal and starting roll than the Lions are willing to give but I’d try to get him back. Dline- you’ve got Barnes as a FA who I’d like back and Levi who has played very well down the stretch. Can we count on him to be healthy for the contract he’s likely to get? I think I would be looking for depth here. so with all that said and Pre free agency I’m looking. DE-Interior OL- DT- S/CB depth

Apparently we are getting Houston Goff today with his decision making. Its fine to take a shot but it was double coverage with both defenders on top. -

Agreed! But I don't expect it to last in the second half. We are going to need to score more then one possession. -

You can't? They throw a lot in that situation... -
I agree here. Tork is really the only guy on our roster who has a power game. It would be malpractice to give up on him while he’s still relatively cheap. Getting him off of first full time and away from his defensive shortcomings potentially helps get his mind straight for hitting and it’s worth seeing if that happens or not. I strongly believe it’s mental with him and not talent when he’s in the batters box.
